Changes to Home Depot's paint and compact fluorescent bulb and tube recycling programs

We're making changes to our paint recycling program in Ontario and Quebec, and our compact fluorescent (CFL) bulb and tube recycling programs across the country. We believe the collection and disposal of CFLs and paint can be more effectively managed through a third-party recycling program and as such, will no longer be accepting these products for recycling. But don't worry - we've got a solution. Beginning March 1, 2013, you can drop off your used paint and expired CFL bulbs at one of the many recycling locations near you.
